What this bill would do

The "Reproductive Rights are Human Rights Act of 2025" amends the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961. It requires the U.S. government to include a specific section on reproductive rights in its Annual Country Reports on Human Rights Practices. These reports must track policies on contraception, pregnancy care, abortion services, and reproductive violence in other countries. The bill also mandates that the Secretary of State consult with civil society, multilateral organizations, and local nongovernmental organizations when preparing these reports.
